I beg to differ.  The human-readable file when using automake is
"Makefile.am", which is far, far, nicer (readable, maintainable, etc)
than a hand-written Makefile for anything but the most utterly trivial
cases.  The language used by automake in Makefile.am is very nice.

As the process for generating Makefiles from Makefile.am is completely
automated and hands-free, there's no reason for users to ever look at
it.

_Very simple_ makefiles are generally pretty readable, but they very
quickly become a big mess of boilerplate.  Automake solves this
problem by generating the boilerplate automatically, so that humans
never have to look at it.

[my general habit is to write straight Makefiles at the beginning, and
eventually when the complexity exceeds some threshold, change to
automake -- which is accompanied by a huge reduction in complexity and
size, but a big increase in functionality .... win win all 'round basically...]
